Review: The Uncommon Reader
Title: The Uncommon ReaderAuthor: Alan Bennett
Category: Fiction, Adult
Rating: 3/5
Summary: A mobile library van visits Buckingham Palace, where the Queen stumbles upon it and feels obligated to check out a book, even though she doesn't really read books.
Review: Cute book. It reminded me of the movie The Queen. You know, because they're both about the Queen.
I don't know that this book was my exact cup of tea, but I enjoyed it. And at 120 pages, it was a super-quick read.
If you love books and the monarchy, you'll adore this little lovely.

Alan Bennett is my cup of tea. I have put the audio version of this book on my wishlist because Alan's voice is as lovely as his writing.
It's my birthday soon.
Just saying.
Now see, when I use the word "lovely" it comes off sounding like I'm a snotty suburbanite. But when you use it, it sounds all...British. Bugger.
